Fixed-Term Contracts-The New European Inequality? Comparing Men and Women in West Germany and France (2007, background): “In France we find matching has removed the temporary worker wage penalty associated with male employment (Blanchard and Landier 2002; Gash 2004).”
Reforming an insider-outsider labor market: the Spanish experience (2012, positive): “11This generalization is inspired by Blanchard and Landier (2002) and Cahuc and Postel-Vinay (2002), which are the first papers to allow for dual contracts in search and matching models.”
Bridge or Trap? Temporary Workers’ Transitions to Unemployment and to the Standard Employment Contract (2008, neutral): “Using French data, Blanchard and Landier (2002) analyse changes in the working conditions of fixed-term contract work for young workers.”
Two-tier Employment Protection Reforms: The Spanish Experience (2008, background): “Economic theory predicts that a lower differential between those dismissal costs would unambiguously increase employment since it would facilitate contract conversions, thereby reducing worker turnover which often raises unemployment (Cahuc and Postel-Vinay 2002; Blanchard and Landier 2002).”

Temporary Employment, Job Flows and Productivity: A Tale of Two Reforms (2012, positive): “With an eye to European labour markets, Blanchard and Landier (2002) and Cahuc and Postel-Vinay (2002) model temporary contracts as churning policies that a¤ect negatively wage setting and may generate higher unemployment and lower productivity.”
Labor regulations and contract labor use: Evidence from Indian firms (2015, result): “The results of this paper are also broadly related to theoretical work on employment protection and temporary workers in the European context [Blanchard and Landier (2002), Cahuc and Postel-Vinay (2002)].”
Labor market policies and IMF advice in advanced economies during the Great Recession (2013, neutral): “For a discussion of dual employment protection, see Bentolila and Dolado (1994); Blanchard and Landier (2002); Cahuc and PostelVinay (2002); and Dolado et al. (2002).”

This Time It's Different? Youth Labour Markets during ‘The Great Recession’ (2012, background): “Of the four substantive papers in the collection, three find negative effects of temporary employment (Blanchard and Landier, 2002; Booth et al., 2002 and Dolado et al., 2002) with only one (Holmlund and Storrie, 2002) suggesting a (partially) positive role.”
